Mind blank. Focus on water tower. Run.. run... run... the glider does the rest.

It's a nice sequence of photos... I've always wanted to hang glide, but I think I'd rather go skydiving. Looks like fun! It's cool how those turned out sort of purple too, it looks good.

I really like this shot, gives a small feeling of what it must feel like.

2200 feet above ground level, 3500 feet above sea level on this flight. But typically these gliders can easily reach 17,000-24,500 feet!

You really get the feeling of being ready to take off, here. You have half of that view, plus the sun nicely captured but well-contained, and there's a lot of potential energy here, waiting to be released. I like the series, so far.

Is that another glider just off in the distance behind the hill? Great shot by the way. :D
